Identifi cation of larval mesoplankton is essential to the study of the supply-side ecology of marine benthic or sessile organisms, such as barnacles. Combined morphological and molecular identifi cations of wild-caught barnacle cyprids from Matang Mangrove Forest Reserve(MMFR), Malaysia were studi...
